kodibuntu/linux: PVR IPTV Simple Client 2, 3, or more - mxlance - 2015-10-13
this is a how to mod and add multiple IPTV Simple Clients in kodibuntu.
i am new to linux and this may work for other installs as well.
there my be a better way but i could not find one. maybe this will give someone who knows more than i do some inspration.
step 1 go to:
usr/share/kodi/addons/pvr.iptvsimple
copy this folder to your desktop
step 1b go to:
usr/lib/*/addons/pvr.iptvsimple
copy the contents of this folder into the pvr.iptvsimple folder on your desktop.
step 2:
open the pvr.iptvsimple folder you copied to your desktop
open the add-on.xml file
change the top of the file to this
id="pvr.iptvsimple2"
version="1.11.5"
name="PVR IPTV Simple Client2"
provider-name="nightik">
save and close the file
step 3:
change the name of the pvr.iptvsimple folder on your desktop to pvr.iptvsimple2
move this folder into the kodi user folder
/home/username/.kodi/addons
step 4:
start kodi
go to system/addons/My add-ons/PVR clients/PVR IPTV Simple Client
control click, configure and enable.
go to system/addons/My add-ons/PVR clients/PVR IPTV Simple Client2

Why not just combine your playlists?
RE: kodibuntu/linux: PVR IPTV Simple Client 2, 3, or more - mxlance - 2015-10-14
i have two sources one being my OTA from the fantastic eyetv IPTV. the second from an IPTV list i am giving a go.
is there a better way to do this?
thank you

Like I said you can just combine the various playlists you have into one file.
RE: kodibuntu/linux: PVR IPTV Simple Client 2, 3, or more - mxlance - 2015-10-14
interesting
i am not sure how to do that,
the eyetv iptv uses a local address for example: (http://192.168.1.20:9898/playlist.m3u8)
the list is a .m3u file with listings as follows:
#EXTINF:0,[COLOR blue]Weather Channel US[/COLOR]
http://cdnapi.kaltura.com/p/931702/sp/93170200/playManifest/entryId/1_oorxcge2/format/applehttp/protocol/http/uiConfId/28428751/a.m3u8
do i just add the eyetv iptv address into the list file?
is it that easy?
thanks for the help with this.

Pretty much, yes.
RE: kodibuntu/linux: PVR IPTV Simple Client 2, 3, or more - negge - 2015-10-14
Or no, I guess you have to download that .m3u8 file and add the individual items from it to your main playlist file.

thank you
i do not know if or how that can be done.
i will ask in the eyetv iptv thread.
for now this is working.
thanks again

I don't think this works anymore
